The Arabian world.
The Dakar legend.
One expedition.

Picture this moment — you leave Riyadh on a BMW R 1300 GS, and 12 days of pure adventure across Saudi Arabia lie ahead of you.

Endless deserts. Rugged mountain passes. Coastal roads. Off-road sections that will test you and your machine.

And on top of that? You are right there at the start of Dakar 2027. You watch a legend unfold with your own eyes. You meet the competitors face to face. You step into the VIP bivouac where mechanics race against the clock — and the stories that write motorsport history are born.

This isn't an ordinary tour. This is an expedition you'll be telling people about for the rest of your life.

Are you ready to experience the Dakar differently?

Why KSA GS ADVENTURE

Not a regular tour. A curated Dakar expedition.

KSA GS ADVENTURE exists for riders who want more than a motorcycle holiday: a rare 12-day journey across Saudi Arabia built around Dakar 2027, BMW GS performance and premium hospitality.

01

BMW GS by design

The BMW R 1300 GS is not an accessory to the trip. It is the core of the experience: road, desert, mountain and long-distance comfort.

02

Dakar built into the route

Technical checks, prologue and live Dakar stages are part of the itinerary, not a decorative promise.

03

Premium recovery every night

Selected hotels, curated logistics and personal support keep the expedition demanding on the bike but refined off it.

Built for riders who want more than a tour

For riders who want a story worth carrying home.

This expedition is designed for experienced adventure travellers who value rarity, logistics, hospitality and the emotional weight of riding where modern rally-raid history is being written.
